Since summer has begun, we have been busy having fun!  In June we went to Silverwood Theme Park which is just about 30 minutes south of our house, almost to Coeur d'Alene.  The kids were way excited to go, and we were excited to see the place as well.

Silverwood is smaller than Lagoon, but it did not disappoint.  The kid rides were cute and fun, and the grounds are well maintained and has beautiful gardens.

 Nick and I took turns going on rides with the kids and staying with Mia.  Teslyn was pretty nervous about most of the rides.  Once she went on them she pretty much loved them.  Convincing her to go on them in the first place was the struggle.  Funny girl.

The longest wait was for this water rafting ride.  Nick went with Owen and Teslyn, and I found a good spot to watch and get a picture.  They are the 3 on the very left.  

And they got soaked!  Here is their after picture.  Good thing it was a warm day!

Mia was a pretty good baby, even though she didn't go on a single ride.  She had a good little afternoon nap in the stroller too.

The kids went on the log ride twice, so Nick and I could each have a turn.  We did that on a couple rides.  

Owen is super fun to go on rides with.  He will try anything, then tell us if he liked it enough to do again.  He wasn't a big fan of the corkscrew, but neither was I!   We had a great day and look forward to Silverwood again next year!

The weather warmed up enough towards the end of June for us to head to the lake beach.  We absolutely love that place.  It is so beautiful and we easily spend hours there.

We have job charts again this year.  Owen completed his first 100 chores to earn this spiffy new snorkel.  

He's so cute.
